Anyone can make online comments to existing posts and reply to previous comments, on any page, no account or log-in needed.

Posting to the Main Page

You should all have received invitations from the blog at the email address you chose to use during the session, inviting you to contribute as authors (creating posts) on this blog.

If you want to use a different email or new address, see the bottom of this page for how to contact Robin or Patricia and let us know your new email address so we can send a new invitation to you. We will also periodically check the PennStaters2011 GMAIL account, so we can also add you if you send an email to us there.

Regardless of the email address you use, you will need to use a Google Account (with or without Gmail) for posting new content online to this blog as a post on the main page.

You have three options:

A) Follow the link and instructions in the email invitation for replying and confirming yourselves as "authors" here, using your own existing Google/Gmail Account log-in.

B) Follow the link and instructions in your email invitation for creating a new Google/Gmail Account for yourself (you can always change it, or delete it and start over later on! It is not a life-time commitment!)

C) Sign in using the PennStaters2011 Google/Gmail account:

Use the "Sign In" link (upper right of your screen) if you need to edit your previous content, or to log in to post under the PennStaters2011 account.  Please exercise extreme caution when logged in as PennStaters2011--you will have the ability to delete the posts or comments of others, delete a whole page, or the entire blog! Generally, try to be very careful when looking at any part of the blog that says "Settings" !

Mobile Posting

By email - Posts can also be made via any email account. Simply draft your post as a normal email--the subject line of the email will appear as the title of your post--and send the email to PennStaters2001.secret word@blogger.com (HINT: the secret word is on your card)

If you would like to take a photo and post it to the blog, you can do that by attaching it to the email post!
